Let’s all ganbaru together.
Anime Taste Testing: Kakushigoto
Yes, I genuinely like the pun. Given the synopsis, I was fully ready to experience something… well, pervy, for lack of a better term. What I wasn’t ready…
Anime Taste Testing: Horimiya
Aside from the creepy teacher, this series is actually pretty okay.
Anime Taste Testing: ID:Invaded
Finally, the detective anime we didn’t know we needed (but that we definitely deserved). You’d be forgiven for wanting to give up on the anime detective/mystery genre entirely…
Anime Taste Testing: Gibiate
This one’s gonna be quick and dirty, because to be honest, I didn’t even make it through the whole first episode.

Fast and Furious: Okinawa Drift.

So Liverpool and Manchester finally united, and then the apocalypse happened. Sounds about right. I’ll get this out of the way right off the bat: I’m an unapologetic…
Anime Taste Testing: Koroshi Ai/Love of Kill
I probably shouldn’t have gotten my hopes up.
Anime Taste Testing: Reincarnated as a Sword
For a series that seemed to get a decent amount of hype, this first episode is exceptional only in its dullness.

Anime Taste Testing: Kemono Jihen
While quite possibly the series I was least looking forward to giving a watch, this ended up being surprisingly alright.
Anime Taste Testing: Taisou Zamurai
Being a sports anime, a dad anime, and a surrealist comedy all in one is a tough sell, that’s for sure.
Anime Taste Testing: Appare-Ranman!

This is one of those shows that I quite want to like, but am still in the process of working out if I actually do.
Anime Taste Testing: Chainsaw Man
Probably the perfect anime series for Tarantino fans.
Anime Taste Testing: Back Arrow
So it’s mecha but with backwater villagers dressed as old-west cowboys and the more tech-advanced folk looking like something out of a Chinese-inspired historical-fantasy. Cool cool.
Anime Taste Testing: Bibliophile Princess
The only way to explain this is if people literally went out of their way to create something generic.
